His general attitude annoyed me today. Seemed fairly happy after the game.
Not to tweet obvious nonsense to anyone with a brain and two eyes.Nope. He's just well aware of his role as a representative of the club in the media. What do you expect him to say?
So what is preventing the sack?
His diagnosis is spot on, so I guess he does.I hope he's actually reading them properly.
Doesn't really help himself, does he?

Yeah, just keep him. A relegation battle should be fun.Only want him sacked if it's the right manager. Southgate can feck off.
If he's a Tier One journo who gets a lot of United news way before others, he may not officially be a rep - but he does represent the club in some way. He and the club obviously know that and therefore have to be careful about what he says.Did I miss something? He isn't a representative of the club in the media.
I thought the match thread thread marks summed it up perfectlyThe really scary thing is that some actually believe that!
Today was like a flashback to the late 80s when football was torture to watch. Almost nothing happened.
I honestly think he is safe because we can't afford to pay him of and pay for a new manager. We're already may be in trouble with FFP due to losing money 3 years in a row.
They aren't fun if you lose them.Yeah, just keep him. A relegation battle should be fun.

Or it's the opposite, he's a genius and figured out that the quickest way to get that 17 millions of severance pay is to talk bullshitI think he might actually be ill. Surely a sane person doesn't believe anything he comes out with.

Yeah, you folks are the real fans.I was half hoping Villa would score in the last few
The whole caretaker manager thing exists for a reason, you can easily argue keeping somebody in a job despite the incompetence just because their replacement is not ready to go is even more nutsOh great, so he knows who the new manger is? Or have you struggled to read my posts too.
The only thing I've said is sacking him without a replacment is nuts. The fact you all find that so controversial belweilders me.
Tedious hystera is the best way to descibe the football forums these days.

The point I was making is that the only threadmarks were line up, kick off, half time and full time. Nothing happened.I'm not a busy man, but I wouldn't waste too much time in a matchday thread on here.
I would hire the tea lady. People wanting the « right » manager or keep him are deluded.He didn't say keep him. Read the post!
use half a quote.... always nice to manipulate things to make a false statementYeah, you folks are the real fans.

No point wasting your time mate. Everyone is wrong apart from him.The whole caretaker manager thing exists for a reason, you can easily argue keeping somebody in a job despite the incompetence just because their replacement is not ready to go is even more nuts
I see where you're coming from but I think you're overthinking things. You know why he posted it, it's not really fruitful to keep thinking about it.He does represent the club in any way. Whitwell represent his paper when it comes to United, not the other way around, he is a representative of the Atlhetic and the New York Times. It's very important to not confuse these things because when it comes to his integrity, he is supposed to publish the truth not act as a PR outlet for the club, otherwise he would be in breach of media ethics.
You are taking a bit of banter a bit too seriously.
13% of people on here ill also. or maybe just maschocist like weirdnessI think he might actually be ill. Surely a sane person doesn't believe anything he comes out with.
Ratcliffe should go and buy 1 million Utd shirts and donate them to charity. Bolster the coffers.Club shouldn't be worried about FFP when the manager has you flirting with relegation. Plus I think there is ways they can maneuver around it having a negative effect.
